we were asleep i noticed 18 00:00:53,029 --> 00:00:51,680 a constant droning sound coming from 19 00:00:54,950 --> 00:00:53,039 outside our window 20 00:00:56,310 --> 00:00:54,960 it continued for several minutes then 21 00:00:58,150 --> 00:00:56,320 eventually stopped 22 00:01:00,229 --> 00:00:58,160 a few nights later the same sound 23 00:01:00,790 --> 00:01:00,239 started i looked at the clock and it 24 00:01:03,990 --> 00:01:00,800 read 3 25 00:01:05,030 --> 00:01:04,000 24 am this time the sound continued for 26 00:01:06,630 --> 00:01:05,040 many minutes 27 00:01:08,870 --> 00:01:06,640 i got out of bed and looked out the 28 00:01:10,630 --> 00:01:08,880 window i noticed a small bright white 29 00:01:11,350 --> 00:01:10,640 light high in the sky that seemed to 30 00:01:13,590 --> 00:01:11,360 pulse 31 00:01:15,670 --> 00:01:13,600 i watched the light for a few minutes it 32 00:01:17,270 --> 00:01:15,680 never moved except for the pulsing 33 00:01:19,830 --> 00:01:17,280 then it disappeared and the droning 34 00:01:21,910 --> 00:01:19,840 sound stopped the next morning i told my 35 00:01:23,350 --> 00:01:21,920 mother about the sound and the light 36 00:01:25,590 --> 00:01:23,360 she said that she hadn't noticed 37 00:01:27,990 --> 00:01:25,600 anything a couple of nights later 38 00:01:29,910 --> 00:01:28,000 i was getting ready for bed my sister 39 00:01:31,749 --> 00:01:29,920 was already asleep in her crib 40 00:01:34,310 --> 00:01:31,759 i walked into the bedroom and noticed a 41 00:01:35,030 --> 00:01:34,320 weird odor it reminded me of antiseptic 42 00:01:36,950 --> 00:01:35,040 cleaner 43 00:01:39,190 --> 00:01:36,960 i looked toward my sister's crib and it 44 00:01:41,109 --> 00:01:39,200 was empty i had been in the bathroom 45 00:01:43,590 --> 00:01:41,119 previously so i thought my mother had 46 00:01:45,670 --> 00:01:43,600 taken my sister to my parents bedroom 47 00:01:47,270 --> 00:01:45,680 i laid on my bed reading a magazine with 48 00:01:49,749 --> 00:01:47,280 the radio very low 49 00:01:51,429 --> 00:01:49,759 after a while i looked at the clock it 50 00:01:53,590 --> 00:01:51,439 was 10 20 pm 51 00:01:55,429 --> 00:01:53,600 i figured that my mother fell asleep and 52 00:01:57,270 --> 00:01:55,439 my sister would sleep with her 53 00:01:59,109 --> 00:01:57,280 my father worked night shift so 54 00:02:00,149 --> 00:01:59,119 occasionally my sister stayed the night 55 00:02:02,149 --> 00:02:00,159 with my mother 56 00:02:03,749 --> 00:02:02,159 i was getting sleepy so i turned the 57 00:02:05,910 --> 00:02:03,759 light off and laid down 58 00:02:07,990 --> 00:02:05,920 at some point i was startled by a weird 59 00:02:10,309 --> 00:02:08,000 dream i remember being frozen 60 00:02:11,990 --> 00:02:10,319 and not being able to move i suddenly 61 00:02:14,390 --> 00:02:12,000 woke and opened my eyes 62 00:02:15,990 --> 00:02:14,400 i felt very cold even though it was july 63 00:02:16,790 --> 00:02:16,000 and we didn't have air conditioning at 64 00:02:19,270 --> 00:02:16,800 the time 65 00:02:21,190 --> 00:02:19,280 the droning sound had started again i 66 00:02:22,150 --> 00:02:21,200 tried to get out of bed but was unable 67 00:02:24,630 --> 00:02:22,160 to do so 68 00:02:26,710 --> 00:02:24,640 i felt very weak and disoriented the 69 00:02:28,869 --> 00:02:26,720 droning sound was getting much louder 70 00:02:30,470 --> 00:02:28,879 and it was beginning to get a headache i 71 00:02:33,030 --> 00:02:30,480 tried to call out to my mother 72 00:02:34,070 --> 00:02:33,040 but no sound came out of my mouth then 73 00:02:36,150 --> 00:02:34,080 suddenly the bedroom 74 00:02:38,470 --> 00:02:36,160 started to fill up with white light it 75 00:02:40,309 --> 00:02:38,480 was brightest above my sister's crib 76 00:02:42,070 --> 00:02:40,319 as the light intensified i noticed 77 00:02:44,710 --> 00:02:42,080 something coming through the wall 78 00:02:46,710 --> 00:02:44,720 as i watched the form became visible it 79 00:02:47,910 --> 00:02:46,720 was my sister floating above the crib in 80 00:02:49,350 --> 00:02:47,920 the prone position 81 00:02:51,350 --> 00:02:49,360 she had come through the light and 82 00:02:53,190 --> 00:02:51,360 through the wall her body slowly 83 00:02:55,270 --> 00:02:53,200 descended into the crib and the light 84 00:02:56,229 --> 00:02:55,280 as well as the droning sound began to 85 00:02:58,949 --> 00:02:56,239 diminish 86 00:03:01,030 --> 00:02:58,959 instantly i regained all of my faculties 87 00:03:01,830 --> 00:03:01,040 i jumped out of bed and went over to my 88 00:03:04,390 --> 00:03:01,840 sister 89 00:03:06,070 --> 00:03:04,400 she was asleep and seemed fine i stood 90 00:03:07,670 --> 00:03:06,080 there by the crib and watched her while 91 00:03:08,550 --> 00:03:07,680 thinking i should tell my mother what i 92 00:03:11,030 --> 00:03:08,560 witnessed 93 00:03:13,270 --> 00:03:11,040 i decided that this would be my secret 94 00:03:14,149 --> 00:03:13,280 not long after that we moved to a larger 95 00:03:16,710 --> 00:03:14,159 apartment 96 00:03:18,070 --> 00:03:16,720 my sister and i both had our own rooms 97 00:03:20,149 --> 00:03:18,080 now to the present 98 00:03:21,589 --> 00:03:20,159 last week my sister and i got together 99 00:03:23,430 --> 00:03:21,599 at her home in michigan 100 00:03:25,750 --> 00:03:23,440 she has her own family and two great 101 00:03:26,309 --> 00:03:25,760 kids as we sat in her living room 102 00:03:28,070 --> 00:03:26,319 talking 103 00:03:30,149 --> 00:03:28,080 she started to tell me about something 104 00:03:31,670 --> 00:03:30,159 her five-year-old daughter told her 105 00:03:33,830 --> 00:03:31,680 it seems that her daughter had an 106 00:03:35,990 --> 00:03:33,840 experience very similar to my sister's 107 00:03:37,670 --> 00:03:36,000 incident when she was 10 years old 108 00:03:39,670 --> 00:03:37,680 i detailed to her what had happened to 109 00:03:41,190 --> 00:03:39,680 her she looked at me and mentioned that 110 00:03:42,309 --> 00:03:41,200 she thought that she had experienced 111 00:03:44,070 --> 00:03:42,319 several abductions 112 00:03:46,309 --> 00:03:44,080 and that she had an odd encounter a few 113 00:03:48,229 --> 00:03:46,319 years back that involved a strange being 114 00:03:50,149 --> 00:03:48,239 that confronted her in her bedroom 115 00:03:52,550 --> 00:03:50,159 she had no further recollection beyond 116 00:03:53,990 --> 00:03:52,560 that that's basically the story 117 00:04:02,710 --> 00:03:54,000 i don't think that any of this has 118 00:04:06,390 --> 00:04:04,550 the night they came for me i was 119 00:04:08,229 --> 00:04:06,400 referred to your sight by my grandson 120 00:04:09,350 --> 00:04:08,239 after i mentioned an incident i had in 121 00:04:11,190 --> 00:04:09,360 1958 122 00:04:13,030 --> 00:04:11,200 when i was a young man going to college 123 00:04:14,949 --> 00:04:13,040 in mont alto pennsylvania 124 00:04:16,870 --> 00:04:14,959 it was late evening and i was in my room 125 00:04:19,030 --> 00:04:16,880 sitting in a lounge chair trying to read 126 00:04:21,030 --> 00:04:19,040 and stay awake at the same time i was 127 00:04:21,990 --> 00:04:21,040 near graduation and had a lot of things 128 00:04:24,150 --> 00:04:22,000 on my mind 129 00:04:25,670 --> 00:04:24,160 as i sat there i had a strange feeling 130 00:04:28,230 --> 00:04:25,680 like someone was watching me 131 00:04:29,990 --> 00:04:28,240 and i became very restless after a few 132 00:04:31,670 --> 00:04:30,000 minutes i sensed that something was on 133 00:04:32,310 --> 00:04:31,680 the other side of the closed door to my 134 00:04:34,710 --> 00:04:32,320 room 135 00:04:36,310 --> 00:04:34,720 i still can't explain it so i got up 136 00:04:38,310 --> 00:04:36,320 from the chair and went to the door 137 00:04:40,310 --> 00:04:38,320 opened it a bit in the towel there were 138 00:04:41,350 --> 00:04:40,320 two men dressed in black suits and black 139 00:04:43,670 --> 00:04:41,360 fury hats 140 00:04:45,830 --> 00:04:43,680 they look like identical twins they were 141 00:04:46,950 --> 00:04:45,840 dark complexion with asian eyes but they 142 00:04:49,030 --> 00:04:46,960 were not asian 143 00:04:50,629 --> 00:04:49,040 as i stood there they didn't set a word 144 00:04:51,510 --> 00:04:50,639 but i knew that they were talking to me 145 00:04:53,830 --> 00:04:51,520 through my mind 146 00:04:55,590 --> 00:04:53,840 saying are you ready for some unknown 147 00:04:56,629 --> 00:04:55,600 reason i knew deep down what they were 148 00:04:58,310 --> 00:04:56,639 referring to 149 00:05:00,550 --> 00:04:58,320 i was shirtless with only a pair of 150 00:05:02,070 --> 00:05:00,560 shorts so i reached for a jacket that 151 00:05:04,070 --> 00:05:02,080 will not be necessary 152 00:05:05,590 --> 00:05:04,080 no one will see you they said the three 153 00:05:07,510 --> 00:05:05,600 of us walked out in the hallway 154 00:05:09,430 --> 00:05:07,520 and suddenly we were standing on a small 155 00:05:11,350 --> 00:05:09,440 hill behind the student hall 156 00:05:13,189 --> 00:05:11,360 i noticed the headlights of a car coming 157 00:05:13,749 --> 00:05:13,199 down the road and ducked behind the two 158 00:05:15,670 --> 00:05:13,759 men 159 00:05:17,510 --> 00:05:15,680 i heard them laughing at me in my mind 160 00:05:19,350 --> 00:05:17,520 we told you no one would see you 161 00:05:21,670 --> 00:05:19,360 i was scared and turned away from my 162 00:05:23,430 --> 00:05:21,680 nude wondering if i should try to run 163 00:05:25,029 --> 00:05:23,440 i thought better of it turned to say 164 00:05:26,070 --> 00:05:25,039 something to them and noticed that they 165 00:05:28,070 --> 00:05:26,080 were looking up 166 00:05:30,070 --> 00:05:28,080 i followed their gaze and realized that 167 00:05:31,749 --> 00:05:30,080 something was suspended above us 168 00:05:33,590 --> 00:05:31,759 i continued to look when an opening 169 00:05:35,350 --> 00:05:33,600 appeared in its center and blue white 170 00:05:37,510 --> 00:05:35,360 light came tumbling out of it 171 00:05:39,189 --> 00:05:37,520 i started to feel dizzy and nauseated 172 00:05:41,270 --> 00:05:39,199 like when you are on a roller coaster 173 00:05:42,950 --> 00:05:41,280 airplane that is dropping too fast 174 00:05:44,790 --> 00:05:42,960 then i realized we were floating up 175 00:05:46,469 --> 00:05:44,800 toward whatever the object was 176 00:05:48,230 --> 00:05:46,479 i must have fainted because i only 177 00:05:49,270 --> 00:05:48,240 remember that i was lying on my side 178 00:05:51,590 --> 00:05:49,280 when i woke 179 00:05:53,350 --> 00:05:51,600 i raised up and looked around the entire 180 00:05:55,110 --> 00:05:53,360 room was empty except for the small 181 00:05:57,110 --> 00:05:55,120 table on which i was sitting 182 00:05:58,870 --> 00:05:57,120 the room was bathed in a soft glow but 183 00:05:59,830 --> 00:05:58,880 there was no apparent light source that 184 00:06:01,830 --> 00:05:59,840 i could see 185 00:06:04,070 --> 00:06:01,840 then i heard a female voice say he's 186 00:06:06,390 --> 00:06:04,080 awake i looked around to see if i could 187 00:06:07,510 --> 00:06:06,400 see anyone but saw nothing about this 188 00:06:09,430 --> 00:06:07,520 time on the far wall 189 00:06:10,870 --> 00:06:09,440 door appeared and opened although the 190 00:06:12,790 --> 00:06:10,880 hallway was dark there was a 191 00:06:15,029 --> 00:06:12,800 bluish-white illumination that appeared 192 00:06:16,870 --> 00:06:15,039 as though something was materializing 193 00:06:18,550 --> 00:06:16,880 two shadows seemed to move across the 194 00:06:20,870 --> 00:06:18,560 doorway but i couldn't tell anything 195 00:06:22,469 --> 00:06:20,880 about the shapes i received a mental 196 00:06:24,390 --> 00:06:22,479 image of two people approaching 197 00:06:26,710 --> 00:06:24,400 when carrying a tray full of some kind 198 00:06:29,270 --> 00:06:26,720 of surgical instruments and syringes 199 00:06:31,110 --> 00:06:29,280 then i went blank my next memory was of 200 00:06:31,830 --> 00:06:31,120 being back in my room and in my chair 201 00:06:33,749 --> 00:06:31,840 reading 202 00:06:35,029 --> 00:06:33,759 i got up and felt like i had just woke 203 00:06:36,710 --> 00:06:35,039 from a deep sleep 204 00:06:38,390 --> 00:06:36,720 then i noticed several items were 205 00:06:40,230 --> 00:06:38,400 missing including three books and a 206 00:06:42,390 --> 00:06:40,240 framed photo of my parents 207 00:06:43,830 --> 00:06:42,400 i have never had any effects that i know 208 00:06:45,590 --> 00:06:43,840 of from my experience 209 00:06:47,029 --> 00:06:45,600 though i have had a remarkable healthy 210 00:06:49,110 --> 00:06:47,039 life as well 211 00:06:51,110 -->

00:08:04,230 --> 00:08:02,000 bedroom window 248 00:08:05,749 --> 00:08:04,240 the wind was blowing my gown i saw 249 00:08:07,350 --> 00:08:05,759 myself at the treetops 250 00:08:09,589 --> 00:08:07,360 and reached to a limb to grab some 251 00:08:11,270 --> 00:08:09,599 leaves they fell from my hand 252 00:08:13,110 --> 00:08:11,280 i then realized the light was towards 253 00:08:14,309 --> 00:08:13,120 where i was floating i looked to the 254 00:08:16,309 --> 00:08:14,319 path i was floating 255 00:08:18,629 --> 00:08:16,319 and saw a disc shaped object just above 256 00:08:20,390 --> 00:08:18,639 the trees i was floating closer to the 257 00:08:22,309 --> 00:08:20,400 beam of light that was emitting from the 258 00:08:24,390 --> 00:08:22,319 bottom of the disk the next thing i knew 259 00:08:26,070 --> 00:08:24,400 i was on a table in a round room 260 00:08:27,670 --> 00:08:26,080 it was very white in the room and the 261 00:08:28,629 --> 00:08:27,680 light was a better quality than i have 262 00:08:31,189 --> 00:08:28,639 ever seen 263 00:08:32,230 --> 00:08:31,199 i then saw three human mic creatures one 264 00:08:34,310 --> 00:08:32,240 was below my feet 265 00:08:35,589 --> 00:08:34,320 the second of my right near my legs the 266 00:08:37,829 --> 00:08:35,599 third was at my left 267 00:08:39,509 --> 00:08:37,839 and up closer to me i looked around at 268 00:08:39,990 --> 00:08:39,519 them then the one on my left took my 269 00:08:42,469 --> 00:08:40,000 hand 270 00:08:44,389 --> 00:08:42,479 i was not afraid i had an overwhelming 271 00:08:45,110 --> 00:08:44,399 feeling of love and compassion from this 272 00:08:46,710 --> 00:08:45,120 entity 273 00:08:48,870 --> 00:08:46,720 we look each other in the eyes and i 274 00:08:50,790 --> 00:08:48,880 felt totally relaxed and at ease 275 00:08:52,310 --> 00:08:50,800 suddenly a fourth entity came in that 276 00:08:54,310 --> 00:08:52,320 was taller than the rest 277 00:08:55,509 --> 00:08:54,320 he came to my right side just as a 278 00:08:57,030 --> 00:08:55,519 surgeon would do 279 00:08:58,790 --> 00:08:57,040 the one of the right of me that was at 280 00:08:59,590 --> 00:08:58,800 my legs placed a thing on the fourth 281 00:09:01,030 --> 00:08:59,600 one's head 282 00:09:02,790 --> 00:09:01,040 it looked like one of those things 283 00:09:04,630 --> 00:09:02,800 children look into to see pictures 284 00:09:05,990 --> 00:09:04,640 to push the handle down and the picture 285 00:09:07,750 --> 00:09:06,000 changes well 286 00:09:09,670 --> 00:09:07,760 anyway the taller one that had the 287 00:09:11,670 --> 00:09:09,680 gadget on his head pulled it down over 288 00:09:13,350 --> 00:09:11,680 his eyes to bend down over my chest 289 00:09:14,790 --> 00:09:13,360 and a small red beam emerged from the 290 00:09:16,949 --> 00:09:14,800 gadget and hit my chest 291 00:09:18,790 --> 00:09:16,959 i felt pain and i could not breath i 292 00:09:20,949 --> 00:09:18,800
